Properly preparing tea in the home was one of the few domestic tasks that even 19th century aristocratic women would not delegate to servants. @John Hartwell's delightful thread, "Tea Time for All," brought this recipe to mind.
Autumn Tea:
Ingredients:
5 Tea Bags
5 Cups Boiling Water
5 cups unsweetened apple juice
2 cups cranberry juice
1/2 cup sugar or more to taste
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice
A dash of cinnamon
Directions:
Place the tea bags in a large heatproof bowl.
Add boiling water.
Cover and steep for 8 minutes.
Discard tea bags.
Add the remaining ingredients; stir until sugar is dissolved.
Serve warm.
